Have never seen that on Steam before. lol, not even X-Rebirth did that...

The game has a lot of trolls that seem to have nothing better to do then to post about their distaste for the game so doesn't really surprise me.
The overwhelming hate for this game has an entire crusade of people who will stop at nothing to try and derail this game. I know there are haters and fanbois alike but in the case of ESO they really push the limits....
I am not sure who pissed in their cheerios, or kicked their puppy but man nothing in life is worth hating that much...
What are your other Hobbies?
Gaming is Dirt Cheap compared to this...
Why would they do that? I was a potential customer because that 50% is tempting. But that throws up even more red flags surrounding this game. I guess I will sit on the fence a little longer.
[mod edit]
Little fix because I own the game and am subbed, got STEAM, can't post....
specifically why would that not surprise you?
Please do not respond to me, even if I ask you a question, its rhetorical.

I think the core question here is why are so many people hyper pissed instead of just indiferent.
any theories?

Game is bad - People are pissed they paid for it (some hundreds of $) - People post bad things about the game.

What is so surprising to you?
OMG they really let us get them to them
Only thing I've had happen with X-(P)rebirth was a temp ban from their Steam forums for 2 or 3 days...
Blame the trolls.
There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein

What's the issue. They don't want you creating hate posts. Move on.
there is a fine line between a hate post and a post just explaining why someone didnt buy the game.
Could it be that is why we have decided free speech is a good thing?

Because the IP, why else? The hate started over it long before it was even playable.

Don't play obtuse, you know exactly why the IP relates to the "hate"...

I prefer it when the fans of the game understand it though,

Nah they want the game to go F2P so they do everything they can to make sure it does not get any success by submitting bad comments about the game everywhere they go.
They like the game but they don't see it as a game that should have a sub, so they voice there opinions on every forums they go to. And the best place to do this is where the games gets release ( steam ) and where future or existing players hangout.
There is a chance they will win by doing this, but i personally hope they don't. I wish to see ESO get all the fix it needs and keep going, everyone needs something to play that they like. And honestly there is such a huge percantage of people that had high hopes for this one that it does not make sense to wish otherwise.
Fans who don't own it? That's a a new one...

Pretty sad imo, they can't handle negative criticism?
The threads and responses to threads in there were running at least 3 to 1 negative....
And a lot of the negative responses were not "trolling"; just "Played the beta, didn't buy..." or "Not a good ES game, compared to other ES games..." or "Not that great of an MMO, have played with all the same mechanics before...".
Nothing wrong with any of the comments like that. No hate, no trolling, just mediocre comments about a mediocre game.
Makes them look stupid, especially because most copies were sold outside of Steam channels....
While i have no ill will for the game, glad to see another P2P game doing alright (hopefully), but there is a lot of "Leave Britney alone" vibes going around with this game. i mean do they care that much? probably every MMO under the sun has had hate/trolling/negative comments and take it on the chin, but here they seem to be trying to create this safety bubble around the game.
Just find it weird tbh
And why do you feel the urge to go to a forum and explain why you DIDN'T buy x or z game? I'm not buying tons of games as well. Why should i believe that others are even remotely interested in my valid or not valid reasons? Self entitlement much?
On the matter, they did a good thing in allowing only owners of the game to post on said forums as they where swarmed with mindless haters and trolls.
free speech doesnt require a reason that you understand or agree with.
